My machine is running on an Intel Core i3-330M Processor with Intel HD
Graphics built-in to the chip. It's a Dell Studio 17 laptop by the
way.  Everything
on the screen is so dim it might as well be black.  I tried booting from
both Ubuntu and Fedora Live CD's.  Dimming was not a problem for either of
those distros.  I talked to some IT guy who suggested I hunt down a
parameter called 'gamma' and adjust it.  I hope someone here can point me in
the right direction.  I really want to give SL a try.
